Gazimoff retires, One less admin, one less AC clerk Options

[LaraLove]

I can't find the thread that all these were being discussed in, so if a mod can please move it, that'd be great. Thanks.

So Gazimoff (T-C-L-K-R-D) was the admin who created WP:RREV, the full scale analysis of RFA following RFA/DHMO 3. I believe it was a greatly needed review and I looked forward to the results and possible revamping of the process. Unfortunately, Durova got involved, spouted off her opinion, which basically fell under WP:CHIPSLAW, and it all went downhill from there. Thanks, Durova. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/dry.gif) Of all the pointless discussion going on around the project that you love to needlessly interject yourself in, it's THIS, which actually served a purpose, that you decided needed to be shutdown? Someone file this as an example of her grand lack of self-awareness.

Anyway, he was also an ArbCom clerk, but has now resigned and retired as seen here.

I'd love it if Lara could stop trying to drag my name though the mud at every chance possible. I don't think anyone ever has insulted, belittled, attacked and bullied me in ways she has done. I haven't felt like this since high school, when a lad in my year group used to pick on a bunch of us. He thought because he was bigger and better than us he could push us around, beat us up and bully us. This is just like Lara, except now it's me on my own, and we're a little older and mature than that. What's ironic here is that Lara goes on about how awful I am, but she is just as bad as I am, in so many ways. I am personally trying to put my own problems behind me. Lara seems to enjoy bringing them up to put me down. This is a thread about Gazimoff, and she couldn't resist bringing up my desysopping - that took place nearly seven months ago - as if it's the latest thing. I wish she would put it to rest. I have never said I was a perfect admin, and I admitted I made errors. She cannot seem to accept this, and believes that I think I was completely without any problems at all. Lara once told me that she was horrible to me because she thought I was a crappy admin. Now I've not been one for over six months, she's still using every opportunity to put me down. If I was to ever leave Wikipedia, it would not because Wikipedia is a problem, but it would be because I can't bear what she's doing. Perhaps I should toughen up a bit, but perhaps Lara should just stop picking on people, then we wouldn't have this problem.

I have recently been on threads here where me, her, Malleus and Iridescent all agree on something, and we're perfectly capable of having an adult conversation. I'd like to keep it that way, without being attacked and ridiculed, by what is no better than schoolyard bullying.

You just graduated like a year ago, right? Anyway, I mostly leave you alone. You're the one being a douchebag in my thread. Damn skippy it's about Gazimoff, so sit down, son. Your comment wasn't about Gazimoff. It was asking why I bothered to post it. A stupid question.

And please, pack up your belongings and leave a nastygram on your talk page about how I ran you off of WP by "bullying" you on WR. I would be glad to take credit for helping you break your addiction. And don't be offended by that. I'm trying to pull as many admins and long-established users off the project as I can -- the good ones -- for the benefit of all involved.

That said, Majorly, you don't have the spine to stand up to me, so don't try it. If you wanna spar in text, then do it; otherwise, don't make dumbass comments in response to my threads and then cry when I snap at you.

Why do you hate me so much?

You sound like Kurt now.

Whoa there, since when does Kurt care whether or why anyone hates him?

That's one thing I always admired about Kurt.

Kurt: Why do you hate Wikipedia?
Majorly: Why do you hate/dislike me so much?
